By A Collection of Hymns

      C.M. Psalm x.
      1 O GOD, the help of all thy saints,
      Our hope in time of ill:
      We trust thee, though thy face be hid,
      And seek thy presence still.

      2 Why should the men of pride and sin
      Thy truth and power defy;
      And boast, as if their evil way
      Were hidden from thine eye?

      3 Lord, thou hast seen; arise and save;
      To thee our cause we bring;
      Reign thou in righteousness and power,
      For thou alone art King.

      4 All our desires to thee are known;
      Thy help is ever near;
      O first prepare our hearts to pray,
      And then accept our prayer!
